1.Effects of Liposome-encapsulated Nitrogen Mustard on Acute Experimental Serum Sickness in Rabbits
Journal of Third Military Medical University 1988;0(05):-
Nitrogen mustard encapsulated with liposomes was administered to the rabbits with acute experimental serum sickness(AESS). Then the serum levels of anti-BSA antibodies and circulating; immune complex(CIC), CH50, and WBC count were determined. The ACPase activity of spleen macrophages was measured. And the sections of renal tissues, after HE-stained, were studied for the accumulation of CIC and the pathological changes. It was found that liposome-encapsulated nitrogen mustard can increase the macrophage activity and in turn aggravate the renal damages of AESS rabbits.The results suggest that the renal damages of AESS rabbits can immunopatholo-gically be attributed to the increased activity of macrophages.

Journal of Chinese Physician 2021;23(3):398-401
Objective:To explore the clinical effect of laparoscopic high ligation of inguinal hernia sac in children with veress needle and semi-rigid biopsy forceps.Methods:121 cases of indirect hernia of groin admitted in Rugao People's Hospital from June 2018 to November 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the operation methods, 121 cases were divided into laparoscopic group ( n=76, laparoscopic high ligation of hernia sac with pneumoperitoneum needle and semi rigid biopsy forceps) and traditional operation group ( n=45, high ligation of traditional inguinal incision hernia sac). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, incision length, postoperative self activity time and postoperative hospital stay were compared between the two groups; the patients were followed up for 3-21 months, and the proportion of postoperative complications and recurrence cases were compared between the two groups. Results:There was no significant difference in operative time between the two groups ( P=0.335), but the amount of bleeding [(3.8±0.7)ml vs (7.3±1.7)ml, P<0.05], the length of incision [(0.6±0.1)cm vs (1.8±1.2)cm, P<0.05], the time of recovery of self activity [(9.2±2.6)h vs (16.2±4.2)h, P<0.05] and the time of hospitalization [(1.3±0.6)d vs (3.4±1.3)d, P<0.05] in the laparoscopic group were all better than those in the traditional operation group; the proportion of complications and recurrence in the laparoscopic group during the follow-up period was less than that in the traditional operation group (χ 2=5.243, P=0.022). Conclusions:Laparoscopic high ligation of indirect hernia sac in children with veress needle and semi-rigid biopsy forceps has the advantages of small trauma, fast recovery and less postoperative complications, and the equipment is easy to obtain, which is convenient to carry out and promote in basic hospitals.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of infective endocarditis in children. Methords Clinical data from 83 patients of infective endocarditis admitted from 1998 to 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. Results In a total of 83 patients, there were 53 males and 30 females, and the average age was 6.8±4.6 years. The main clinical characteristics were fever (77.1%) and mild to moderate anemia (71.1%). The C-reaction protein (67.5%), erythrocyte sedimen-tation rate (60.2%), and white blood cell (47.0%) were elevated. Twenty (24.1%) patients had embolism. Blood culture was pos-itive in 56 (67.5%) cases with bacteria mainly being Gram-positive and Streptococcus and Staphylococcus accounted for 89.3%. Vancomycin and other sensitive antibiotics were effective. Neoplasm was detected in 68 cases (82%) by transthoracic echocar-diograerphy. Fifty-ifve (66.2%) patients underwent cardio surgery. Seven patients (8.4%) died. Conclusion In recent years, the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in infective endocarditis had changed. Streptococcus mitis and Staphylococcus aureus has become a major pathogens and need to be treated by vancomycin and other sensitive antibiotics. The detection rate of neoplasm is higher by echocardiography.
